NEW DELHI: The Tibetan spiritual leader His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who
was admitted to a hospital in New Delhi with chest infection, was discharged on Friday (12 April). He will be resting in Delhi for some days before returning to Dharamsala.
He had returned to Dharamsala from Delhi after attending an international conference on Monday, but the next day he felt uneasiness in his chest and had to be brought here for checkup, according to Tenzin Takla, his private secretary.
“When he woke up this morning (Tuesday) he was feeling discomfort and so we
brought him to Delhi. Doctors said he will undergo treatment for next two-
three days,” he added.
The sources said that the Dalai Lama witnessed sleeplessness and
restlessness on Monday night.
Reiwa - A new era dawning in Japan, marking a break from Chinese
TOKYO: A new era or 'gengo' begins in Japan on May 1 with the
coronation of prince Naruhito. The current emperor, 85-year old Akihito,
had abdicated last year due to poor health. The new era has been named
'Reiwa' as against the running gengo called 'Heisei'.
'Reiwa' is a character of 'harmony' chosen from an ethnic work of poetry
signifying a break from the tradition of following Chinese names and laying
stress on Japan's own culture.
The era is printed on coins, newspapers, driving licences and all other
official papers. The system is gradually declining with dependence on
Western calendar.
Currently, New York is in the grip of a corona epidemic.
Casualties are mounting day by day. Hospitals are
overflowing with patients. There are not enough beds and
ventilators. The US has the maximum number of cases in the

Density of population and its mobility in cities are
contributing to the higher mortality which could further climb

community transmission by identifying the silent carriers of
the deadly pathogen and quarantining them.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has tested positive for
coronavirus. So also Health Minister Hancock. Wishing early recovery, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrote to Johnson: "You’re a fighter and you will overcome this challenge as well." The corona crisis has gone out of control in the UK with not enough equipments to fight the contagion.
During corona time, the best is not to step out; in case you
go out, use hand sanitizer frequently; stay away from others
6 feet; don't touch face, eyes, nose, mouth, and if in self-
doubt, carry a stress ball; wash hands with soap thoroughly
on return - You are safe, and others too. Sure!
